Swedish Baked Potato

This one is definitely a side dish.  I discovered this one on pinterest and had to try it.  It just looked so...fun!  And it was pretty good, considering it was a potato :-) lol

Ingredients


6 Medium Size Potatoes
2 - 3 Cloves Garlic, thinly sliced
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
30 g Butter
Maldon Sea Salt
Freshly Ground Black Pepper


Method


Preheat the oven to 425˚F. Put the potato on a chopping board, flat side down. Start from one end of the potato, cut almost all the way through, very thinly spaced.


Arrange the potatoes in a baking tray and insert the garlic in between the slits. Scatter some butter on top of each potato. Then drizzle the olive oil and sprinkle some sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.


Bake the potatoes for about 40 minutes or until the potatoes turn crispy and the flesh is soft.
